Subordination of the troublesome
question of providing a way of paying
for munitions of war has not simply
postponed a decision on this point, in
the opnion of the Angloh‘rench Com-
, mission, as reflected by its callers, but
will result in its gradual disappear-
ance. These bankers have assumed
that the big credit would undoubtedly
not be intended to cover every dollar’s
worth of exports, but that Great Bri-
tain and France would continue to
remit gold to American. and also
would sell American securities in this
market. .
These methods, it was thought,
lcould amply provide a way of taking
the munitions matter_out of the nego-
tiatlons.
The first big problem, as the com-
mission and its American associates
viewed it. was to stabilize exchange.
This could be done by establishing a
credit covering foodstuffs and cotton
alone, hardly reckoning manufactured
artlcles or munitions. '\\'llh exchitngcd
slablllzed it was thought. there would
be little difficulty in paying for muni-
tions. 1
Proposals before the commission al-
so were said to provide for instalment
payments by banks guaranteeing big
loan and the deposit in subscIlblng
banks of all subscriptions without iu~
teresf. until such time as they are
needed. Another feature said to have
come up for discussion was whether
the short term bonds, pl) which the
loan is to be lssued could not be made
